The Canada-focused Deloitte Technology Fast 50 ranking requires that companies have been in business for at least five years, have revenues of at least $5 million, have demonstrated significant revenue growth, are headquartered in Canada, own proprietary technology and conduct research and development activities in Canada.

As one of the fastest-growing tech companies in North America, they have demonstrated technological innovation, entrepreneurship and rapid growth.”
